Stop Press The Dr has a Vagina


I'm a bit of a geek, quite a bit of a geek if truth be known.

So there I was this afternoon, cooking a roast all while having one ear on the television waiting for what looked like the forgone conclusion of Federer winning to finish.
I passed the time talking to fellow geeks and throwing various names into the hat for position of the new Dr.

It seemed like an age before they had finished making small talk with who is arguably the best male tennis player ever.

And then Sue Baker said the words that made my ears prick up.
"Dr Who"

The trailer started and I of course recorded it onto my sky+ box for posterity.

Ok, so its someone in a hoodie...........can't really tell from the hands, I thought the nails looked slightly male shaped but then the camera flashed up to eyelashes coated in a lick of mascara and the unmistakable face of a female.

OMFG its finally a woman.

I watched more than once, amazing I thought and well overdue.

Then I remembered an hour earlier I had posted an article about Jodie Whittaker being a late comer to the name the Dr Who game.

Nail, head and hitting came to mind!

So as the next few hours unfolded and I got on with making some hypnosis Mp3s for clients I began to see on my social media what can only be described as misogynistic arseholes spitting scorn on the decision.

Comments a bit like

"Seems a bit weird, changing characters gender seems to be in vogue at the moment"

"Yet to be convinced"

This wasn't just happening on my page either, wherever I looked I saw crap like.

"What next Zac Efron as Lara Croft?"

"I despise PC"

Have these Men (and they all are presenting as male) not noticed that its 2017 and women can even vote nowadays.

The most shocking thing to me is some of these people are therapists......
When they have such views then how can they treat women.....particularly strong and powerful ones.

I felt compelled to write some responses and amongst some I have said is
"If the Master can be a woman then why not the Dr?"

I kinda knew I could get into trouble with some of my Facebook friends for having such a liberal, what appears to be forward thinking attitude but frankly I don't give flying fuck.

Their attitude stinks but thankfully there are some wonderful people that liked my comments, I guess because any rational person knows there is no issue in a woman being the Dr like myself.

The thought has crossed my mind to unfriend these idiots who have issues with humans with vaginas... maybe they need to come and see me to talk through their feelings of what might be their own feelings of demasculinisation.
I would however miss out on the sweet pleasure of them eating their words when Jodie does an excellent job.

I will stand my corner because it doesn't make any difference what body parts a Dr has but just that they are the right person for the job at the right time.
This one I feel will run and run.

As some proper geeks amongst us would cheer "Heres to the crimbo special"

Can't bloody wait!

Maybe Rodin got it wrong

The kiss is a beautiful enchanting sculpture, but did you know they aren't even actually kissing.  The true story is tragic as is most true love stories of course. We have all been there, the first time for me it was a teachers son in the primary school toilets. That first fumbling, where do you put your teeth, banging noses and in some cases glasses when you both go the same direction.  But as we age we forget the importance of 'The Kiss', whether the familiar delicate touch of a faithful lover to the passionate first one on the voyage of discovery.  You can tell so much about a person from the way they kiss (if they do at all), the impersonal double air (i don't want to actually touch you kiss), the lingering sweetness or the shoved against the wall (I'm almost eating you kiss).  Maybe you are a peck, tongues, no tongues, lots of lips or none at all.  Its all in our individual style, like how we wear hair or clothes. Some peoples style we like and s...

Eroticism in the Shires

  Eroticism is the exploration of feelings and emotions motivated by sex and sexuality. So not sex itself then.... Its easy to get confused and see being erotic as smutty, taboo, kinky or even unacceptable behaviour of someone in a committed relationship.   How many giggle at the word 'penis' and wouldn't know how to appropriately use handcuffs or god forbid a strap on. Well unbeknownst to many and keep it to yourself but people have sex....its kinda how we got here.... But that's where the difference is, being an erotic sexually powerful human is mostly frowned upon when actually its the best way to a mutually fulfilling sex life.   Thens there time, a quick hows your father or the regular in the dark bunk up after the takeaway on a Saturday night. We all have families, children, careers, gym memberships and homes to maintain.   So start the process slowly, sexting isn't just for the Tinder © generation you know.   Are y...

A blog about Blogging....why not!

I really should blog more! So today while rearranging my email signature (priorities, right) I noticed that in fact although I loved to write, I hadn't been writing my blog for quite sometime. Last weekend I went to the nchp conference in London, not only is it so heartwarming to be in a room of people who give their minds and lives over to assist in others journeys but also that it always brings me back to my own path and what I love. I had recently given a talk on sexuality to a local public school and I loved how when the words tumbled from my mouth they all made not only sense to me but those listening. It was amazing to get such sophisticated questions from some fairly young students who were soo eager to lean about how vast the sexual landscape is. I have been working on my own idea of sexual landscape to incorporate how fluid and ever changing your sexuality can be over time and in my own personal way how I have gone from heterosexuality to Bisexuality via Pansexual...
